172 Like a wise old man (1/2)

With a big smile, Kelly suddenly clung onto Kai's arms.

”Hehehe, I'm just kidding, my prince,” she winked at him while he just closed his eyes and sighed. Why did he seem to always cross paths with this big troublemaker? What on earth did he do in his past life to deserve such torment?!

”Stop calling me 'prince'!” he sternly said as he put the phone back in his pocket.

”Sigh… I really want to know who Alexander Qin is. How is he able to turn a beautiful royal prince like you to be his personal errand boy? And why does a prince like you obey his every word? Don't tell me you'd also be willing to put your life at risk or even die for him like an olden day knight?” Kelly blabbered on, seeming to mindlessly just spout out her thoughts. But really, she was truly curious of what the answer could be because until now, despite using her father's resources, she hadn't been able to find any information about Alexander Qin or what was his connection was to the royals of the Hidden Kingdom.

Kai sighed again and he tried to peel her off him. ”That's right, if he wanted me to, I would die for him. Happy?” he answered and walked away, leaving Kelly's mouth hanging open. Eh? What? Was he serious? Her last sentence a while ago was just a joke and yet he confirmed it so seriously?

Kelly ran after him and hugged him from the back, effectively stopping him from running away.

”Oh babe, why are you running away from your mommy? That's not nice,” she said and Kai closed his eyes again, pressed his temples and sighed. He felt like he was starting to get high blood pressure every time this girl showed up around him.

”Miss Kelly Yang, can't you at least behave in public places like this?”

”Sigh… why do you mind other people that much? Oh well, I understand you're a mighty royal but have fun, my boy! Don't be obsessed with your reputation that much.”

”It's not about reputation or anything like that, Miss Hooligan. Behaving properly in public places means being considerate to the masses. Everyone of us are obliged to do that.”

”. . .” Gosh! Did he just give me a sermon? ”Oh well, like I said, you think too much about other people. Be selfish sometimes too, your majesty. People really don't care that much about what you do. Each of us has what is called 'freedom' to do what we want with our lives.”

At last, the prince turned to look at her. He stared at her face with his delicate eyes. ”Did you ever wonder what might happen if drivers just did whatever they wanted to on the roads without caring about others? If they didn't follow rules or etiquette and only thought about themselves?”

”Uh…”

”Sometimes, freedom create chaos. Freedom is a good thing if people don't abuse it.”

”. . .”

Kelly's grip on him subconsciously loosened up. She was speechless. She always knew that this guy sometimes acted like a sheep in the middle of the pack of wolves but he was being so damn thoughtful right now, almost like a wise old man full of knowledge and wisdom.

”Er…” Before she could speak, Kai pulled her aside and slightly bowed in silent apology at the ladies who were stuck behind them.
